Environment

At the Hotel Castel Brando, we take care of our guests but also of the environment. We are convinced that preserving the planet requires, among other things, simple small actions on a daily basis.

Therefore, several actions have been implemented :

• Waste sorting and composting bio-waste
• Use of heat pumps for heating
• Plastic free and suppression of single-use products
• Reducing paper consumption with printed invoice only on request
• Installation of free electric car charging stations
• Promotion of local sourcing products in our restaurant

Choosing to use local products allows us to reduce our ecological impact while offering you to discover the best producers of the island either at our restaurant and at our breakfast buffet. In our Spa, we have also developed a partnership with the brand Intimu© to offer you treatments made with essential oils grown and distilled only few kilometres from the hotel.

In 2018, solar panels were even installed and integrated to our lauze roofs (24m² of sensors) in order to participate in our hot water production.

Since 2023, we have set up an eco-friendly laundry where almost all household products have been reduced thanks to our ozonated water generator AVATAR. In fact, the water is heated by solar energy and the clothes are dried in an environmentally-friendly way, without ironing.

Also, we are now 100% plastic free. Plastic bottled mineral water has been replaced by our micro-filtered water from the Vallée de Brando in a reusable glass bottle.

This project was co-financed by the European Union and the Collectivité de Corse. It enables us to participate in the preservation of our region’s natural resources.
